C-arm fluoroscope-guided pain intervention involves using specialized imaging technology to guide various medical procedures aimed at managing pain. Here are the key points:

1. C-Arm Fluoroscopy:

   • A C-arm is a mobile X-ray machine with a C-shaped arm that can be positioned around the patient.

   • Fluoroscopy provides real-time X-ray images during procedures, allowing visualization of internal structures.

2. Applications:

   • Pain Management Procedures:

     • Nerve Blocks: Precise needle placement near nerves to alleviate pain.

     • Epidural Steroid Injections: Used for spinal pain management.

     • Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA): Heat-based treatment for nerve-related pain.

     • Joint Injections: Deliver medication directly into joints (e.g., knee, shoulder).

3. Advantages:

   • Accuracy: Real-time imaging ensures precise needle positioning.

   • Minimally Invasive: Procedures are performed with minimal trauma.

   • Safety: Reduced risk of complications.

4. Considerations:

   • Operator Skill: Proper training is essential for effective use.

   • Radiation Exposure: Safety measures are crucial for patients and medical personnel.

In summary, C-arm fluoroscopy-guided pain interventions enhance accuracy and safety, improving pain management outcomes. Consult Dr Chinmoy Roy at Rajarhat Pain Clinic, Kolkata, who is an expert of C-arm guided pain Intervention.
